Consider that a surveyor records a property boundary as 30 rods (US survey) long. Convert this distance from rods (US survey) to Gigameters.
Answer:
Given:
The length in rods (us survey) is:
Length(Rods (US survey)) = 30
Formula:
The formula to convert length from rods (us survey) to gigameters is:
Substitute given weight Length(Rods (US survey)) = 50 in the above formula.
Length(Gigameters) = 50 / 198838383.79999998
Length(Gigameters) = 2.51460503e-7
Final Answer:
Therefore, 50 rd is equal to 2.51460503e-7 Gm.
The length is 2.51460503e-7 Gm, in gigameters.

Rods (US survey)
A rod (US survey) is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying in the United States. One US survey rod is equivalent to exactly 16.5 feet or approximately 5.0292 meters.
The US survey rod is defined as 16.5 feet, based on historical surveying practices and used for measuring and plotting land.
Rods (US survey) are used in land surveying, property measurement, and agricultural practices in the United States. The unit ensures consistency and accuracy in measuring shorter distances within these fields.
Gigameters
A gigameter (Gm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One gigameter is equivalent to 1,000,000,000 meters or approximately 621,371,192 miles.
The gigameter is defined as one billion meters, making it a measurement for extremely large distances, often used in astronomical contexts.
Gigameters are used in fields such as astronomy and space science to describe distances on a scale larger than megameters. They offer a convenient way to express the vast distances between celestial bodies and in large-scale cosmic phenomena.
